Ethnic and genetic factors of iron status in women of reproductive age.

The American journal of clinical nutrition - 1 Dec 2017

Gordeuk Victor R, Brannon Patsy M

Abstract excerpt

Background: African Americans are at increased risk of iron deficiency (ID) but also have higher serum ferritin (SF) concentrations than those of the general population. The Hemochromatosis and Iron Overload Screening (HEIRS) Study was a multicenter study of ethnically diverse participants that tested for the hemochromatosis (HFE) C282Y genotype and iron status.Objective: We sought to determine the prevalence and...
